WDW Home of the world's worst coffee

[jax86]

It's been a while, but I think theres a bakery in MGM that has decent coffee

There is another website I know of that has compiled list of "real" coffee places in the parks. If anyone is interested send me PM and I'll give you the link.

I plan on printing this list and trying to confirm as many places on the list as possible.

One more thought. I'll admit I'm a coffee snob but I don't always have to have the best. All I ask for is fresh brewed not instant. I just wish it was easier to find at WDW.

Grumpyguy, we did the same thing one year! We have what we call an "emergency" coffee pot (little cheap one we use when the perculator goes out) and my mother just packed it along with our stuff when we drove. Was WONDERFUL!

7) In the past, park and DTD coffee sponsors have been
. . . Maxwell House, 1955
. . . Hills Brothers, 1958
. . . Columbian Coffee, 1992
. . . Nescafé, 2001 (11 yr contract from 11/1/01)
ice cream, ice

Products").[/I]

Holy moley, Rusty! That explains why the coffee was so GOOD the first year I went to WDW. It was Columbian - my favorite. I wondered about my taste buds going senile when I tasted the coffee after the turn of the century.

I will say it has saved me a bunch of money buying mugs, etc. Here's hoping when the contract runs out for Nescafe, they bring back Columbian.

I had also been a huge fan of Mickey Bars, until I got deathly ill from one a couple of years ago. I spent the entire night with my head in the wastebasket.

Can't be any worse then Starbuck's? That has to be the worst, burnt smelling, nasty tasting coffee in the world IMO. Whenever my family and I are out & see HUGE lines at Starbuck's, we always wonder when people will realize that they're overpaying for a cup of coffee that consistently loses in taste tastes against such inexpensive rivals as Dunkin DOnuts, McDonald's new McCafe, and our local favorite, Law's Coffee.

Whenever I hear anyone talk about the "burnt" taste of Starbucks, I have to wonder what blend they drank when they tried it last. There are many different coffee blends at Starbucks and also different blended drinks, frappacinos, etc. The original Starbucks was Pike Place and, depending on your taste, it is pretty strong and bitter. (some people love it.) So if that's what you equate with Starbucks, that's probably why you don't understand why people buy Starbucks coffee.

It really is all about your own personal taste. I for one find Dunkin Donuts original blend absolutely vile! The grounds are orange, for goodness sake! YUCK. Their dark roast, on the other hand, is pretty good.

I happen to like certain Starbucks blends and buy some frequently to make at home.

To each his/her own! Full disclosure: I'm the proud mother of a certified barista who makes some of the best coffee I've ever had!

I'm not even a fan of Starbucks fan but I would prefer Starbucks over Nescafe. When the contract is up for renewal with Nestle I hope they negotiate better coffee.

Boma has good press pot coffee. Sanaa may have it too.

I really, really love coffee, and theirs is really, really bad coffee, but I'm not sure I'd want them to change the coffee. It is an integral part of my Disney experience.

That's kind of like hoping they wouldn't remove the gum you stepped on in on your first trip to Disney. It might be a memory, but you don't need to repeat it.

Nescafe coffee is only fair when it's actually brewed which it seems to be in the Poly concierge building. The sludge-o-matic is just

Starring Rolls at DHS does have pretty decent coffee.

I agree. I rarely buy Starbucks at Starbucks. I buy the bag at Walmart and brew it at home. It is much better than most anything you'll get in the store, and if you buy it at Walmart (or Target) it's a lot cheaper than at most other grocery stores.
